Thrilled to be able to offer my thoughts on this special wine. Lunch with the full current release set from La Rioja Alta was thrilling. The wines are a demonstration of respect for the past and judicious use of modern technology combined with an approach that offer a style reminiscent of a refreshed classic. No fads here!A seamless, harmonious delight. Superb secondary to tertiary development whilst maintaining exceptional freshness for a wine aged this long. Earthy and savoury with faint l
Nebbiolo from Commune di Barolo, Barolo
Much more impact at the front end of the palate with a pleasing build in grip compared to the plush Brunate. Linear, long and fine. Lovely flowers. Long, even fruit of significant depth, with a lick of leather throwing in tar/slate/licorice complexity. Opening the class to reveal more opulence. Acid tannin complex is exceptional. Superb structure. The perfume is insane. Wow, as this builds in the glass, it builds in class, just opening beautifully. A lot of power.Paul Kaan, WINE DECODED Sep
This is the baby in the bunch, representing one of the newest additions to the Vietti portfolio, with the first vintage produced in 2018. The learning curve in Monvigliero is always steep, or so most winemakers tell me, because very few can go to 100% whole-cluster fermentation. Indeed, the 2021 Barolo Monvigliero sees 60% whole clusters. The Vietti team is experienced, and this wine is pristine. This vintage was harvested on September 30th, and maceration was a bit shorter, at 20 days. The wine
Nebbiolo from La Morra, Barolo
Cracking Brunate! A very complete wine. Tannins are so refined, even through the front and middle palate. Round chocolateyt mid-palate that tapers a little. Incredibly elegant, again a poised acid-tannin complex with ripe, layered, silky tannin. Actually builds post swallow. Perfectly ripe and balanced. Incredible length. The core of fruit is insane. Oppulent & exceptional.Paul Kaan, WINE DECODED Sept 2025Brunate is also one of my favorite wines from Vietti (and, boy, is it har
Nebbiolo from Castiglione Falletto, Barolo
While Vietti's Villero is their Top Wine. This is my favorite! The 2021 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is elegant, floral and lifted. I also find it a bit reticent in the early going. Crushed flowers, bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, white pepper and spice open with some coaxing. I would not dream of touching a bottle anytime soon, the wine's considerable sensuality notwithstanding.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 96+ PointsThis is a serious beauty that reminds us of the brilliant work und
Nebbiolo from Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo
Stunning immediate red fruits, wicked acid and epic long, even structured tannin. Serralunga to a T. Pun intended, for it has fine black tea aroma and flavours. Insane depth & a long, even core of fruit. Deceptive richness, drive & purity. Savoury. Impressive wine that will take time to reveal its true self. Recommend minimum 7 years in bottle. Such power with finesse.Paul Kaan, WINE DECODED Sept 2025Fruit for this wine comes from a three-hectare parcel in Serralunga d'Alba n
As only the second vintage of 890 I've tried I was immediately struck by the contrast the 2011 has compared with the 2010. Share a glass with the importer, he remarked that the 2011 is a more typical vintage for the 890. While 2010 presented with a richness and generosity, the 2011 has the hallmarks of a great Claret. Vibrant fruit with a subtle underlying lacing of oak, building in the glass, fruit slowly shining through. A fine line of acid adds to the impression of delicacy and restraint. Low
Nebbiolo from Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo
A parcel of Arione has been earmarked for Monfortino in 2015, giving a strong indication of the quality of the site! The first release in this stellar vintage of this wine which is an expression of the section of Arione that falls outside of the region of Barolo. Made in exactly the same way as Roberto’s Barolo, with slightly less aging, this wine is so very pretty. Supple fruit, clean and lithe, almost, but with great stuffing and all the hallmarks of great Barolo. Spice, mineral, red and dar
Pretty, red fruit. Beautifully developed. Impeccable élévage. An underlying tar/leather/slate notes layering in intriguing complexity. The Vietti crew have built quite a lot of structure into this Ravera of Novello. A wonderful example of Ravera making for a very complex iteration. Lovely generosity. Fine plush Neb tannin. Divine roses. Impressive! Bud-break & harvest is around 2-3 weeks later than most of the other Communes for Vietti.Paul Kaan, WINE DECODED Sept 2025The 202
Pinot Noir from Morey-Saint-Denis, Côte-de-Nuits
Another high point of the range is the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Seuvrées, a medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety wine evocative of dark berries, licorice, sweet soil tones and potpourri. Vibrant and intense, it's a serious cuvée, built to age.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 90-92 Points
Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, Piedmont
We have benefited from a delayed release of the Cortese 2021’s. It’s fascinating reading critic notes from barrel tastings and just post-bottling. They are such a snapshot in time. Seeing this 2+ years after the most recent critic notes shows they had solid insights. The Blue Label Barbaresco was first released just a few years ago and has consistently represented exceptional value underpinned by quality fruit and the deft hand in the winery. The 2021 continues to follow this short, yet impr
Nebbiolo from Treiso, Barbaresco
Elegant, fine, grape first and just delicious. Settling and opening in the glass. Sitting in a sweet spot. Beautifully refined texture. Long, even and slatey in a good way. Serious wine at the price point. Licks of spice, background orange citrus hum. Bright red fruits. Vibrant acidity, salty and a little bloody, with a gently tarry, alpine note. Excellent shape, flow and persistence. Harmony. Give this a few years, and you’ll go to a happy place.Great to see a Barbaresco Classico from the
